1.3 Guidelines for management compensation

Updated guidelines for remuneration to the CEO and senior executives were adopted by the Board of Directors on April 27, 2022, and proposed by the Board of Directors for approval by the Annual General Meeting scheduled for May 23, 2022. The guidelines have been revised to comply with the requirements of the Public Limited Liability Companies Act (§6-16 a and b) and the new Regulations for guidelines for and reporting of remuneration to leading persons for public companies which

$D$ onsisn

became effective on January 1, 2021. The updated guidelines have been included as an appendix to this report, and will be available on the Company's website if and when the Annual General Meeting approves the guidelines as proposed by the Board of Directors.

The current guidelines were approved by the Annual General Meeting on May 26. 2021. The actual remuneration for 2021 has been decided according to the current guidelines, whereas the remuneration for 2022 will be decided according to the updated guidelines. This report includes reporting of the actual remuneration for 2021 as required by the Public Limited Liability Companies Act (§6-16 a and b) and the new Regulations for guidelines for and reporting of remuneration to leading persons for public companies which became effective on January 1, 2021.

The Board of Directors does not have its own compensation committee, thus the Board of Directors itself follows up, discusses and recommends specific matters concerning the various remuneration elements. The Nomination Committee follows up matters related to the Board's fees and rules related to these, and proposes Board fees to the Annual General Meeting.

1.4 The Board of Directors' follow-up of remuneration in 2021

The Board of Directors has approved the updated guidelines for remuneration to the CEO and senior executives, and has proposed said guidelines to be approved by the next Annual General Meeting. The Board of Directors has reviewed the remuneration to the CEO and senior executives to comply with the current guidelines. The Board has also reviewed this report to comply with the Public Limited Liability Companies Act (§6-16 a and b) and the new Regulations for guidelines for and reporting of remuneration to leading persons for public companies which became effective on January 1, 2021.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S ASSURANCE REPORT ON REMUNERATION REPORT

To the General Meeting of Eidesvik Offshore ASA

Opinion

We have performed an assurance engagement to obtain reasonable assurance that Eidesvik Offshore ASA's report on salary and other remuneration to directors (the remuneration report) for the financial year ended 31 December 2021 has been prepared in accordance with section 6-16 b of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act and the accompanying regulation.

In our opinion, the remuneration report has been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with section 6-16 b of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act and the accompanying regulation.

Board of directors' responsibilities

The board of directors is responsible for the preparation of the remuneration report and that it contains the information required in section 6-16 b of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act and the accompanying regulation and for such internal control as the board of directors determines is necessary for the preparation of a remuneration report that is free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.

Our independence and quality control

We are independent of the company in accordance with the requirements of the relevant laws and regulations in Norway and the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) (IESBA Code), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. Our firm applies International Standard on Quality Control 1 (ISQC 1) and accordingly maintains a comprehensive system of quality control including documented policies and procedures regarding compliance with ethical requirements, professional standards and applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Auditor's responsibilities

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on whether the remuneration report contains the information required in section 6-16 b of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act and the accompanying regulation and that the information in the remuneration report is free from material misstatements. We conducted our work in accordance with the International Standard for Assurance Engagements (ISAE) 3000 - "Assurance engagements other than audits or reviews of historical financial information".

We obtained an understanding of the remuneration policy approved by the general meeting. Our procedures included obtaining an understanding of the internal control relevant to the preparation of the remuneration report in order to design procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company's internal control. Further we performed procedures to ensure completeness and accuracy of the information provided in the remuneration report, including whether it contains the information required by the law and accompanying regulation. We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

The Board of Directors' guidelines for the remuneration of senior executives must be approved by the Annual General Meeting at minimum every four years, and the Annual General Meeting must approve any material changes.

These guidelines apply to Executives in the Eidesvik Offshore ASA group who are considered to constitute the senior executives or leading personnel in the Company. The Executives comprises the Chief Executive Officer and senior executive officers reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer. The remuneration scheme for Executives has been designed in accordance with the same principles and contains the same forms of remuneration as applicable and relevant for other employees in the Group, subject to local conditions and regulations.

1. REMUNERATION POLICY

How the guidelines promote the Company's business strategy, long-term interests and sustainability.

Successful implementation of Eidesvik Offshore ASA's business strategy and substantiating the Company's long-term interests, including sustainable operations, requires the Company to recruit and retain highly qualified employees.

To support the implementation of the Company's business strategy with the aim described above, the Company needs to be able to recruit, develop and retain leaders with relevant experience, high competence and good leadership qualities, and it is therefore important that the Company can offer its Executives a competitive remuneration.

The main goal for Eidesvik Offshore ASA's Remuneration Policy is to contribute to the Company's profitability and contribute to increased shareholder value by attracting, retaining and developing qualified people with the right managerial and professional competencies.

The remuneration strategy aims to provide a clear framework for remuneration to senior executives so that the terms support the Company's business strategy and long-term interests, including sustainable growth and profitability, and which contribute to long-term growth in shareholder value.

The fundamental principle in the Company´s determination of salary and other remuneration for the Executives is that the terms are to be competitive with terms in positions with similar responsibility, workload and complexity in relevant comparable markets.

2. ELEMENTS INCLUDED IN THE REMUNERATION OF THE SENIOR EXECUTIVES

Remuneration includes all the instruments the organization and its Executives have at hand and utilize to encourage and reward performance. The various remuneration elements are:

  • a. Fixed remuneration (base salary)
  • b. Variable remuneration (annual bonus)
  • c. Other benefits
  • d. Pension

a. Fixed remuneration (base salary)

The base salary will be determined based on: job level, relevant comparable competition, salary band for the job, performance level, budget assumptions and adjustments and guidelines for annual salary review.

b. Variable remuneration (annual bonus)

The purpose of variable remuneration associated with the Company's financial and non-financial objectives, is to ensure that the remuneration scheme foster performance consistent with the Company's strategy.

The variable remuneration program shall be linked to one or more predetermined and measurable criteria, which may be financial or non-financial. The criteria should be predetermined and measurable, and should be fixed for the bonus year.

Financial goals that the Company generally considers having a good link to the Company's business strategy, long-term interests and sustainable growth are considered: profitability elements and cash earning elements. Non-financial targets may be used at Company or individual levels to promote, among others, the Company's HSE and ESG strategy and other operating-related measurements. It is in the Board's discretion to determine the Company's variable measurable criteria on an annual basis. The principles are described in more details below:

The Executives subject to this Remuneration Policy are eligible for an annual bonus subject to achievement of an agreed set of targets. Performance level related to the set of targets will be the criteria determining the size of the annual bonus. The target structure will comprise Company targets and individual targets when appropriate. A target level expressed in % of base salary will be defined for each Executive. Determination of the target will be based on market standards for each individual Executive position. The annual bonus scheme will have a maximum ceiling of 35% of fixed salary for senior executives as of 31 December in the earning year. The bonus outcomes for financial elements are calculated by achievements equal to the defined goal will give a more defined share of the maximum bonus for the relevant financial bonus element. Bonus outcomes for non-financial targets are assessed at the discretion of the Board of Directors for the CEO, and by the CEO for other senior executives. The amounts paid out under the annual bonus program shall not provide a basis for pension.

The target structure will include two independent weighted components:

  • i) Company targets with weight up to 100 %. and;
  • ii) Individual targets when appropriate, with weight up to 50 %.

The individual targets will be decided by the CEO for Executives, and by the Board of Directors for the CEO. The CEO and Executives will be measured against i), and ii), when an individual target has been decided.

The bonus level matrix will be reviewed annually to be in line with the local market and the Group's remuneration strategy.

The Board of Directors shall approve any annual bonus in excess of target bonus under special circumstances for one or more individuals.

The elements in the variable remuneration scheme referred to as the weighted combination of Company targets and the individual targets ensure that the Company's long-term interests are aligned.

c. Other benefits

Other benefits, which may include, for example, company car, car allowance, travel and/or commuting allowance, home office allowance, personnel and health insurance, medical examination etc., shall be on local market terms and related to job level, and should constitute only a limited part of the total remuneration. Benefits will be adapted to local market standards and job level. If a decision is made to allow coverage of costs in excess of normal local market terms, such decision must be based on special circumstances, documented, and in each case be approved by the CEO.

e. Pension

Like other employees in Norway, the CEO and Executives participate in the Company's occupational pension scheme pursuant to the Norwegian Occupational Pension Act, and have a pensionable income of up to the maximum limit in the tax-favoured collective pension schemes in Norway. In addition, Executives can receive financial coverage for higher salary elements than what may be limited by the rules for the collective schemes that follow from law and agreement. At present, this applies to pensions for salaries over 12 times the National Insurance basic amount in Norway, and is currently applicable for the CEO who receives 10% of the annual base salary in excess of 12G in additional pension contribution, paid in 12 instalments per year.

3. RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS

The Remuneration Policy is a policy that the company intends to comply with. The policy does however not create any rights for the CEO or Executives, or any obligations for Eidesvik Offshore ASA or its affiliates.

4. FEES FOR GROUP POSITIONS

If the Company terminates the employment agreement for the CEO, the CEO is in certain circumstances entitled to receive salary as severance pay for 6 months in addition to the six month notice period. The severance is paid in 6 monthly instalments starting from the end of the 6-month notice period.

For all Executives other than the CEO, the employment agreements include a 3-month mutual notice period. No Exectutives other than the CEO are entitled to severance pay.
